| |
| Installation |
| ------------ |
| |
| :doc:`INSTALL` |
| |
| Configuration |
| ------------- |
| |
| After installing NLSR from source, you need to create a configuration file for |
| NLSR. Please take a look at :doc:`manpages/nlsr.conf` for a sample configuration. For |
| details on configuring a router, please refer to :doc:`ROUTER-CONFIG`. For details on |
| security configuration, please refer to :doc:`SECURITY-CONFIG`. |
| |
| Running |
| ------- |
| |
| Run nlsr with the following command: |
| |
| :: |
| |
| nlsr |
| |
| NLSR will look for the default configuration file, ``nlsr.conf``, in the current directory. |
| |
| You can also run ``nlsr -f`` with the absolute path of the configuration file: |
| |
| :: |
| |
| nlsr -f /usr/local/etc/ndn/nlsr.conf |
| |
| To run NLSR as daemon, use the ``-d`` flag: |
| |
| :: |
| |
| nlsr -d |
